most interesting oity inIndia. It is the
people themselves, the street life, the
mediaeval pageants'and pomp, which
fascinate. Every thing' seems to have
stood still* tfor centuries. One is
plunged suddenly into the age of the
cavaliers. The town is battlemented
and ditched and jealously guarded. In
fact, permit from the, residents is
necessary for .Europeans who wish to
enter the walls.
Once over the bridge spanning- the
half-dried stream, where elephants are
splashing in the deep pools and hun
dreds of "dhobies" are pounding and
scrubbing thelinensof the Hyderabadee
households,, and what a kaleidoscopic
jumble meets the eye in the densely
crowded streets! There are long rows,of
low, whitewashed buildings, with fa
cades of Saracenic arches, under which
the merchants squat among piles of
cotton goods, silks, carpets, brass-ware,
grain, etc., suckingmeditatively the am
ber mouthpiece of the inevitable "hub

betel-leaf and rattling their bags of
"hallisicker" rupees, or lumps of rough

raced roofs veiled women are curiously
peering at the jelling throng below,
through latticed screens, reminding one
of Stamboul or Cairo. Elephants gor
geously caparisoned, saddled with silver
"howdah" in which "Nawabs,"cladin
brilliantly embroidered silks and vel
vets, recline on cushions camels on
which are perched the Arab soldiers of
the Nizama armed with lance and
shield prancing little horses from the
Persiangulf mounted by sharp-featured,*
mitered Parsees, bankers or great mer
chants, are seen while the multi-col
oredthrong of pedestrians, fantastically
arrayed, or scarce arrayed at all, as the
case may be, rolls unceasingly to and
fro.
To the uninitiated stranger it would
seem that the whole population is about
to rush forth to do battle with some in
visible enemy, for all are fiercely,
alarmingly hung about with murderous
weapons, from the great noble, with
hisbejeweled rapier dashing by, fol
lowed by his escort of Arab cavalry,
with swords drawn or lances bent, to
the peaceful "ryot," who has brought
in bis little harvest of fruit or grain, a
spear and shield in his hand, and wear
ing a girdle full of gleaming knives
and anoient pistols, and from the Nizam
with sword-hilt scintilating with the
gems of yonder Golconda treasure
house, to the "Sais," who runs before
your elephant, a dagger between his
teeth. A poor devil may have no
cloak, no turban, but he is sure to have
a couple of lohg-bladed knives thrust
into his meager loin-cloth or a long
barreled Arab gun alung across his
bare shoulder. Fastened on the per
sons of the Hyderabadees one sees
every variety of death-dealing weapon
the curved cimeter, jagged "tulwar,"
double-edged crusader, undulating
blades of bluish steel, perfidious, slim
stilettoes and battle-axes, with every
oonceivable form of modern and an
cient gun and pistol, blunderbuss and
matchlock. Many carry round shields
of transparent rhinoceros hide, gilded
and painted, or of steel elaborately in
crusted with graceful designs in gold
or silver.N. T. Post.
SEPULCHRAL RELIEFS.
Ancient Works of Art Recently Brought
to Light at Athens.
The unique series of ancient sepul.
chral reliefs which have been brought
to light by excavations in the Cerame
icus, the public cemetery of ancient
Athens, have two interests, at any rate,
which it would be hard to exaggerate.
For one thing, many of them are extra
ordinarily beautiful for another, they
illustrate as nothing else does eertain
aspects of Athenian life and civilization
at a period when Athens was still one
of the great powers of Greece. Natur
ally, these reliefs are exceedingly vari
ous, both in date and workmanbhip and
character. Some of them are archaic
and stiff and formal. Others, again,
easily distinguishable, are simply bits
of bad work. But a large number are
full of the most exquisite beauty and
pathos, and it is chiefly of these that
we wish to speak. In a great number
of cases the artist has chosen for repre
sentation on these monuments the last
farewells between the dying person
and the survivors. Evidently "this was
a very favorite form of sepulchral
monument, and it admits of the
expression of a far more delicate
and a deeper pathos than any
other form. There are reliefs repre
senting the last farewells between hus
band and wiferbetween father and son,
between mother and daughter, between
friends. Sometimes the representation
is allegorical. A lady takes her last
look at her casket of jewels, which
stand mllegorically for the pleasant
world to which sho is saying farewell,
and the,relief is saved from all charge
of triviality by the exquisite sadness,of
the lady's face. Of course it must not
be supposed that all the best reliefs
represent these farewells. One of the
most famous, erected .to Dexileos, rep
resents him as a victorious warrior in
battle, slaying his foe. Still, what we
have said is a true general description.
Now, in order properly to appreciate
the spirit of, these grave monuments,
we must remember that to .the Greek
death was necessarily far more terrible
than it is to us.' In the nature of
Wbtovjrna

know that they considered it "the su
preme evil." Yery few people indeed
could have been convinced by Socrates*
famous argument to his friends after
his trial that it must, after all, be reck
oned to be a good thing. To the ancient
Greeks it was not only.'a dreadful mys.
tery it was the final parting from all
that they hel dear, from their families,
from their friends, from life itself. It
still had all its bitterness./ 'Nothing
could have been keener than tbjs grief
which it excited.Bp9&toj2&SBBSA
